Who's the best outside Europe?

Few would dispute that a majority of football's finest
performers are based in Europe. The Old Continent is not, however,
the exclusive home of the elite, and this brings us to the latest
in our 'Have Your Say' series: who is the best player
currently turning out away from European shores?

Argentina and Brazil export footballers in their droves, but
there is nonetheless no shortage of talent within their borders.
The presence in these countries of Juan Roman Riquelme, Diego
Buonanotte, Juan Sebastian Veron, Andres D'Alessandro, Rogerio
Ceni, Adriano, Jorge Valdivia, Thiago Neves, Renato Augusto and
Marcelo Moreno, among countless other luminaries, attests to
this.

Perhaps your top pick is based elsewhere in South America, or
further north in Mexico, where Omar Bravo, Salvador Cabanas and
Humberto Suazo star. Scrolling up a map of the Americas, you'll
find Los Angeles, the home of David Beckham and Landon Donovan,
while further east across the USA the likes of Cuauhtemoc Blanco
and Marcelo Gallardo earn their crust.

Robson Ponte, Cho Jae-Jin and Du Zhenyu are just a few of the
many stand-outs in Asia, while Mohamed Aboutrika and Teko Modise
are consistent headliners in Africa.

The aforementioned players make up just a small percentage of
the candidates, but which one do you feel is the best outside of
Europe? Click 'Add your comment' to share your opinion with
